Comments and Impressions:
  • The old broad is going to brag.
    I have been a member of the shire of Wyvern Cliffe since the Sunday after the very first Toys for Tots.
    Granted I took 5 years or so off after Duncan died.
    That being said, I am so freaking proud of our members.
    No way we could ever put on TFT without a lot of help from across the kingdom.

    But tonight watching the floor go down and the lists go up I had one of those moments.
    So many members of our tiny shire were out there, on their hands and knees, fitting pads and securing everything with duct tape.
    In addition people from across the kingdom were right there beside them.
    I am so proud. I felt Duncan and Neihm in that moment. I know he and she are saying it was worth the lean years, when we wondered if we would have enough members to fill.the officer positions.
    Thank you "my" sweet shire mates, Auntie Alvira loves you.
